Ḍa. He said, "Yes, I will do it." Second, if you find it very difficult to practice those things that should be accepted and those that should be avoided, and you think you cannot do it, it is not that others are forcing you to accept it, but because what you have long desired and pursued has been achieved. Now, strive to protect it, this is the instruction to fulfill the desired purpose. O fortunate one, listen! You have previously wished to be ordained and take the vows of a bhikṣu in the well-spoken Dharma-Vinaya, and to obtain the status of a bhikṣu. Now, you have been ordained and taken the vows of a bhikṣu because you are suitable to be a Khenpo, suitable to be an Acharya, the Sangha is in harmony, and the four karmas are unwavering. Therefore, you have been ordained and taken the vows of a bhikṣu. Third, a bhikṣu who has taken the vows for a hundred years and you are equal in three aspects. Therefore, you must learn as the elder sthaviras learn, this is the instruction. O fortunate one, listen! What a bhikṣu who has taken the vows for a hundred years should learn, one who has taken the vows today should also learn. What a bhikṣu who has taken the vows today should learn, one who has taken the vows for a hundred years should also learn. Thus, equality in discipline, equality in training, and equality in reciting the Prātimokṣa Sūtra, these are what you should do and not fail to do from now on. Fourth, just as loving parents and children in the world serve each other, you should respectfully serve the Khenpo, and he will also take care of you, this is the instruction. From now on, you should have the perception of the Khenpo as your father. The Khenpo should also have the perception of you as his son. From now on, you should serve the Khenpo for as long as you live. The Khenpo should also take care of you until death or recovery. Fifth, not only to the Khenpo, but also to other Dharma friends who practice the same, you should serve with respect, this is the instruction. From now

从今以后,你应当对梵行者、住持、中等者和新学僧众,怀有恭敬、尊重和敬畏之心。他们会教导你清净的修行方法。第四是关于证悟之见的清净教导:你受比丘戒,这完全是进入了佛陀的教法。闲散度日是不行的。要精勤于闻、思、修三学,成为精通三藏,内心充满戒、定、慧三学的人。这就是教导。从今以后,你要受持经文,阅读经文,背诵经文。要精通五蕴、十二处、十八界、十二缘起以及是处非处。为了获得未得的,证悟未证的,实现未实现的,你不要放弃精进。因此,这四种清净是修行的主要内容,必须按照教导努力学习。现在,第二是间接提及的其他内容:不仅是前面提到的学处,对于没有直接提到的止恶行善的学处,也要通过依止堪布、阿阇黎等善知识来了解,从细微之处开始,不要在取舍上犯错。这就是教诲。这些只是我给你讲的一些大的学处纲要。其他更详细的内容,在每半月诵戒时会听到。其他内容,上师、堪布、同一堪布、同一上师、熟人、来访者、询问者和道友们也会广泛地教导。第二,关于对所缘境的对治法的教导,分为两部分。第一,将恭敬与学习结合起来:你获得了暇满的人身,遇到了珍贵的佛法,得到了佛法的心髓——比丘戒,这非常难得。

From now on, you should abide in being subject to reverence, respect, and fear towards those who practice similarly to Brahma, the elders, the intermediate ones, and the new ones. They will instruct you in pure practice. The fourth is the pure instruction on the view of realization: Your accomplishment as a Bhikshu is the complete entry into the Buddha's teachings. It is not acceptable to live idly. You must diligently engage in the three activities of hearing, thinking, and meditating, and become proficient in the three pitakas and rich in the three trainings of higher perception. This is the teaching. From now on, you should receive the teachings, read them, and recite them. You should be skilled in the five aggregates, the twelve sources, the eighteen elements, dependent origination, and what is and is not possible. In order to attain what has not been attained, to realize what has not been realized, and to manifest what has not been manifested, you should not abandon diligence. Therefore, these four purities are the main things to be accomplished, and you must study diligently as instructed. Now, the second is the indirect reference to other things: Not only the precepts mentioned earlier, but also the precepts of abandoning evil and practicing good that are not directly mentioned should be understood by relying on teachers such as Khenpos and Acharyas, and from the subtle points, do not make mistakes in what to take and what to abandon. This is the instruction. These are just some of the major outlines of the teachings that I have told you. Other more detailed content will be heard when reciting the Pratimoksha every half month. Other content will also be extensively taught by teachers, Khenpos, the same Khenpo, the same teacher, acquaintances, visitors, questioners, and Dharma friends. Second, the instruction on the antidote to the object of focus is divided into two parts. First, combining respect with learning: You have obtained the fully endowed leisure and opportunity, encountered the precious Buddha's teachings, and received the essence of the teachings—the Bhikshu vows, which are extremely difficult to obtain.

因此,告诫说,要像爱护眼睛一样珍视戒律,以恭敬之心如法修持。这是因为:在至高智慧的教法中,你已受具足戒。暇满人身极难得,这些都要如法修持。能极大地增上美妙,完全清净是具足戒。圆满正觉者完全知晓,以真谛之名宣说。第二,与谨慎相结合:如此恭敬戒律,以谨慎的方法修持沙门的行仪。这是告诫说:具寿,你已受具足戒,要谨慎修持。这虽然言辞简短,但意义深远,不错误地取舍进退是谨慎。以三门的行为谨慎地修持这神圣的律藏,就能获得解脱和永恒的安乐。如《别解脱经》所说:如来、阿罗汉、圆满正觉者们的菩提,以及其他与此相似的善法菩提分,都是通过谨慎获得的。如是所说,具有巨大的利益,要好好修持。如此,通过加行、正行、后行三者,你受具足戒的仪式就完成了。这主要是由堪布的因缘所致。自己应该做的自己做了,其他需要别人做的,都安排妥当了,所以要行三个感谢礼,说声“谢谢”。大家一边撒花,一边念诵四种愿文。进入解脱至高寂静的殿堂,这是引导进入的仪轨次第,如同珍贵的阶梯。比丘达玛西日所著。智慧登上东方山顶,百道光芒的善说,寂静调伏的宗风广大显现,愿长久成为教法的庄严。愿以此功德,无边众生,以梵行功德的甘露之水,洗净百种过患的污垢,获得不住涅槃!这是疯癫的比丘愚昧的达玛西日在牛年于邬金敏珠林寺的经堂所著。

Therefore, the instruction is to cherish the precepts like the pupils of your eyes, and to cultivate and practice them properly with reverence. This is because: In the teachings of supreme wisdom, you have received the full ordination. The leisure and fortune [of human life] are difficult to obtain, so practice these as they are. To greatly enhance beauty and to be completely pure is the full ordination. The Fully Awakened One knows this well, and declares it with the name of truth. Secondly, combining with mindfulness: Thus, respecting the precepts, practice the conduct of a renunciate with mindfulness. This is the instruction: Venerable one, you have already received the full ordination, so practice with mindfulness. Although these words are few, their meaning is vast. To engage and withdraw without error in what to adopt and abandon is mindfulness. If one practices this holy Dharma-Vinaya with mindfulness in the actions of the three doors, one will attain liberation and lasting happiness. As it is said in the Pratimoksha Sutra: The enlightenment of the Tathagatas, Arhats, Perfectly Awakened Buddhas, and other virtuous Dharmas that are similar to it, the aspects of enlightenment, are also attained through mindfulness. As it is said, it has great benefits, so practice well. Thus, through the three aspects of preparation, main part, and conclusion, the ceremony of your full ordination is completed. This mainly arises from the circumstances of the Khenpo. You have done what you should have done yourself, and those things that others needed to do were arranged accordingly, so offer three gestures of gratitude and say "Thank you." While everyone scatters flowers, recite the four aspirations. In the supreme peaceful mansion of liberation, this is the order of the ceremony that leads to entry, like a precious staircase. Composed by the monk Dharma Shri. May the hundred rays of light of the well-spoken words that ascend the eastern mountain of wisdom, the vast appearance of the peaceful and tamed tradition, long be the glory of the teachings. By this merit, may all limitless beings, with the nectar of the water of the virtues of pure conduct, wash away the stains of hundreds of faults, and attain non-abiding Nirvana! This was composed by the mad monk, the ignorant Dharma Shri, in the Ox year at the Dharma school of Orgyen Mindroling Monastery.
